Hello,

Since i try to get an overview of the different ships sea shepherd used over the years, i stumbled across the the sharkwater. Does anyone know what happend to her? she was planned to be used by SSCS but it never got that far. Do they still work on it or not? haven't heard anything since the announcement in 2022.

Hello everyone, your friendly admin here, While the Steve Irwin is no longer under Sea Shepherds name the owners Ship 4 Good is trying to get it back underway and helping with conservation around Australia.

Its first trip will be to Sydney. Currently docked in Newcastle. If you want to come help send me a message.

Please consider donating even a small amount to help the ship.

The engines are running, things are starting to look good, paint is done, engine room is still being worked on we are just finalizing everything for its sea trails but things like marine radios and IT network and security and electronics all got ripped out of it so it needs replacing, Doug and I are spending alot of time getting everything back up and working again so its taken alot of work to get it back to sea worthy again.

Thanks for any help you might be able to provide.

Sea Shepherd has quite a history of mega campaigns dating all the way back to the 70’s!

Can you name a campaign/operation that had a particular impact for you?

Can’t seem to find season 2 of whale wars anywhere! Any ideas?

After five months, Captain Paul Watson has been released from prison in Greenland today at 5AM EST. He immediately announced he'll be resuming his activities, urging Denmark to stop killing pilot whales.
More news to come, but there are already post-release interviews being shared on Paul Watson Foundation, Sea Shepherd France and Sea Shepherd Brazil Instagram accounts.

Hey there seasheperds I was living in Newport Oregon a few years ago and met a fellow seasheperd i forgot her name though she had the logo on her neck though. I know it’s a long shot but if anyone knows her I’d love to talk to her again

Hello everyone. I was thinking about Sea Shepherd's operations of these last years, and I was thinking if we can consider it a sort of private maritime security organization (not company since they lack the "for-profit" status) active in the environmental field, or what could be its status otherwise?

Which historic Sea Shepherd vessel is this? I’ll accept two answers 🏴‍☠️

🤔 What is the name of this retired Sea Shepherd ship? I’ll accept two answers 🏴‍☠️

Comment your answer!

Hey all, in Germany we have a huge amount of death strandings of grey seals in the Baltic Sea. All well fed, no signs of infections or diseases based on autopsies, but with net marks and fluid in their trachea. We need stricter regulations to prevent any further occurrences of these events. So even if you don't live in Germany I would appreciate your support to spread the word and increase pressure on the federal institutions in charge: https://chng.it/VPKPTrKfpw

Hello all,
I'm trying to find information about what Sea Shepherd is doing in the Med, as it's the closest to where I live and to my heart, but it's hard to find any. A quick look through their website yielded two posts from this summer. I clicked on one and it was just 5 paragraphs. That is far from enough to put my money into something.

I'm also subscribed to their YT channel and the only thing they do there is post unconvincing flashy cinematic montages.

My question is:
Is that all? Are there any documents, other websites, or channels where they provide information on what they are doing and how they are spending the money? Is any more info available to donors? Are they more focused elsewhere, not so much in the Med?

I don't have the time to thoroughly check what other donation-supported efforts are doing, but for example, I know of and support Mossy Earth, a group that deals with rewilding various habitats. They provide spending reports, videos that are convincing, detailed, longer, and not flashy, and also actual written reports. Apart from that, they make polls and take into account the suggestions in YouTube comments.

I would love to support Sea Shepherd, but the info they provide I find to be scarce.

I have finished watching the Sea of Shadow film on Hulu and found it inspiring. For the past few days I've been wondering what Sea Shepherd crew members/supporters felt about the film's depiction of Sea Shepherd's contribution to the greater effort to save the vaquita and whether the film impacted positively/negatively to the cause.
